          The Findutils package contains programs to find files. These
          programs are provided to recursively search through a directory
          tree and to create, maintain, and search a database (often faster
          than the recursive find, but unreliable if the database has not
          been recently updated).

          5.22.1. Installation of Findutils

        <p>
          Prepare Findutils for compilation:
        </p>
        <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">./configure --prefix=/tools</kbd>
</pre>
        <p>
          Compile the package:
        </p>
        <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">make</kbd>
</pre>
        <p>
          Compilation is now complete. As discussed earlier, running the test
          suite is not mandatory for the temporary tools here in this
          chapter. To run the Findutils test suite anyway, issue the
          following command:
        </p>
        <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">make check</kbd>
</pre>
        <p>
          Install the package:
        </p>
        <pre class="userinput">
<kbd class="command">make install</kbd>
